The 8gb Nexus is for my wife and the 16gb version is for me. The 8gb will arrive before the 16gb and she said I could go ahead use it until the 16gb ships. I am going to activate the 8gb version on Straight Talk (AT&T Data) with my phone number and when the 16gb version comes in, I will switch my number to that phone.

The question: Will my wife be able to use the 8gb version with her number once I switch over to the 16gb version? Will Straight Talk lock the 8gb version? Cause I know you have to put in an IMEI number on their website. So basically, will my wife be able to use the 8gb version after I have activated it on Straight Talk's website and have switched to the 16gb?

lol - I will be doing the same thing with my wife in a few weeks. I can not answer your question, but I was under the impression that all you would have to do to change numbers would be to swap SIM cards.

ST asks for the IMEI just to make sure they send the right size sim card.

Oh yeah! This is right. I just activated my mom's iPhone 4 on ST and the IMEI # ST requested wasn't even on the phone. It was on the SIM card! Ok, cool. How do I mark this [SOLVED]? Thanks for your help.
